Chapter 76: Arhat Pao And The Millennium Bodhi Heart.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
“Interesting.”
Although Su Qin’s expression did not change, interest piqued his heart.
He is currently at the 2nd Heavenly Layer of Arhat Buddhahood. With his Divine Sense, almost nothing can hide from him. Unless it is a powerhouse at the same level, he can ‘see’ it and/or anyone.
“Are the patterns on the stone gate from an Arhat of the Shaolin Temple?” Su Qin wondered.
He didn’t suspect that Xuan Ku was lying. One is because Xuan Ku dares not to. Second, the place where Xuan Ku said is within the Shaolin Temple, and Su Qin can easily check if it is true or not.
“It seems that there are still some secrets in the Temple that I don’t know of…” Su Qin sighed.
Moreover, the Shaolin Temple has inherited thousands of years of history. There have been many Arhats during that period of time. If the Temple had no such background, Su Qin would not have believed it.
“Venerable, what I said is true…”
Xuan Ku saw Su Qin not talking for a long time, and thinking that the Venerable did not believe him, he became anxious.
Su Qin hearing this, laughed. He then said softly: “I know… You lead the way, I will accompany you to take a look.”
Su Qin is very curious about what is it that the past Arhat had left.
Soon, under the guidance of Xuan Ku, Su Qin came outside the stone gate.
“It’s here?” Su Qin glanced around. This was the back of a hill, where there was a lot of vegetation, and there were hardly any disciples coming over here.
“This is…” Su Qin took a closer look.
“Heaven and Earth Great Array?” Su Qin’s eyes slightly narrowed.
Whether it is an Arhat or Legend, they have gone beyond the scope of the Martial Dao’s 9 Grades. Their Cultivation was no longer limited to themselves, and they gaineds more insights towards the Heavens and Earth.
The Heaven and Earth Great Array is the result of an Arhat’s insights from the Heavens and Earth.
The Heavens and Earth are divided into many types, and some are biased towards suppression, such as the Heaven and Earth Array in the Demon Subduing Tower.
Some are biased towards killing the enemy, while others are biased towards stealth and hiding.
The Heaven and Earth Array on the stone gate in front of him is of a stealth type.
It is precisely because of this, that Su Qin’s divine sense was temporarily blinded and he could not find it.
“Venerable, it’s there.” Xuan Ku pointed to the stone gate and whispered.
“I see.” Su Qin took a step forward and appeared outside the stone gate.
“Here?” Su Qin’s pupils turned.
Since he now knows that this is a Heaven and Earth Array of the stealth type, Su Qin will naturally not continue to use Divine Sense to probe it, since it’s useless.
Hong long long~
Su Qin raised his right hand and lightly pressed it on the stone gate.
Suddenly, some hidden mechanism seemed to have been activated.
The stone gate then began to slowly retreat, revealing a dark entrance.
“Venerable…”
Xuan Ku was stunned. He exhausted himself trying to open the gate to no avail, but Su Qin just touched it and it opened so easily?
Su Qin did not speak, and instead moved towards the entrance.
Through the [Eyes of Truth], Su Qin was sure that there was nothing in the entrance that could threaten him.
Su Qin headed inside, walking along the stone steps in the entrance.
Meanwhile, Xuan Ku just stood outside and waited obediently. He didn’t want to follow Su Qin, as he probably just impede the Venerable.
Soon, Su Qin arrived at a secret room.
There were many bookshelves in the secret room, and many Buddhist scriptures were placed on them. It’s a pity that the overwhelming majority of it was already rotten, and only a few were left. But even those that did survive, the special material that it’s made of, was barely retained.
“This secret room has existed for at least a thousand years.” Su Qin guessed in his heart while moving towards the secret room.
Soon, when the path came to an end, he saw a Monk wearing a golden robe quietly sitting cross-legged.
The Monk has no breath, he passed away long ago.
“He is, Arhat Pao?” Su Qin carefully looked at the Monk, his expression changed slightly.
Arhat Pao is the last Arhat of the Shaolin Temple, so naturally there were pictures of him in the temple for future generations to admire.
In fact, not only Arhat Pao, but also other Arhats who have appeared in the Shaolin Temple through the ages have one.
“Arhat Pao, nine hundred years ago…” Su Qin’s thoughts turned rapidly.
There were many rumors about Arhat Pao. He passed away at the age of less than 400 years old in order to suppress the Demon Buddha. Even Buddha’s Palm was lost because of this.
“No wonder I didn’t see Arhat Pao’s dead body in the Thousand Buddhas Hall. It turned out to be here…”
“This place should have been arranged by Arhat Pao Arhat he passed away. He also left behind the Heaven and Earth Array outside.”
Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
Although he didn’t know why Arhat Pao Arhat didn’t spend his last moments and die in the Thousand Buddhas Hall, choosing this secret room instead, he put it aside as that is not important right now.
“That’s right.”
“This place has existed for at least a thousand years, will there be Dao Accumulation? Can I Sign In?” Su Qin’s heart moved.
He still had his Sign In opportunity, so he tried to say silently in his heart:
“System, Sign In!”
[Congratulations!]
[Sign In Successfully!]
[Obtained the ’Millennium Bodhi Heart’!]
“Millennium Bodhi Heart?” Su Qin’s expression was that of joy.
A Bodhi Heart is a sacred Buddhist relic. It is extremely precious. In the history of the Temple, there were very few Bodhi Hearts that have appeared, even rarer than Arhats.
Even an ‘ordinary’ Bodhi Heart can make a Grade 1 Great Grandmaster gain enlightenment, and greatly reduce the possibility of encountering Cultivation Deviation. Much more that this is a ‘Millennium’ Bodhi Heart!
More than ten years ago, if Abbot Hui Wen had a Bodhi Heart at the time of his breakthrough, even if he failed, he wouldn’t have entered Cultivation Deviation.
Unfortunately, the last Bodhi Heart that appeared was lost hundreds of years ago and it has not been recovered.
As for the Millennium Bodhi Heart…
In the ancient books in the Shaolin Temple, this Millennium Bodhi Heart only exists in legends, and no one can even prove whether it actually exists.
“Not bad.” Su Qin slightly nodded.
Since he obtained such a great item, even if Su Qin were to leave right now, he has already profited from this trip.
After scanning the Millennium Bodhi Heart that appeared in the System Storage, Su Qin settled down and looked at Arhat Pao.
As an Arhat, his Body is strong, so despite a thousand years passing, he still maintained his appearance.
Su Qin’s eyes then fell on a stone wall in front of Arhat Pao.
“Huh?” Su Qin’s expression changed, as if he saw something incredible.
